(54) | Motor current detection apparatus, motor controller, and electric power tool |
(57) A motor current detection apparatus in the present invention includes: a current
detection unit (R0), a first filter (42, 73, 92), and a second filter (43, 74). The
detection unit (R0) detects a conduction current flowing from a battery (19) to a
brushless motor (30) and outputs a conduction current signal corresponding to the
detected conduction current. The first filter (42, 73, 92) extracts a first current
signal which is included in the conduction current signal outputted from the detection
unit (R0) and is a signal component in a frequency band equal to or lower than a predetermined
first cutoff frequency. The second filter (43, 74) extracts a second current signal
which is included in the conduction current signal outputted from the detection unit
(R0) and is a signal component in a predetermined frequency band within a frequency
band equal to or lower than a predetermined second cutoff frequency higher than the
first cutoff frequency and having the second cutoff frequency as a maximum value.
